3 1/2 yards of ribbon is 70 cents
7 yards of ribbon is 140 cents.
1 yards of ribbon is 20 cents.
5 yards of ribbon is 100 cents.
2 1/2 yards of ribbon is 50 cents.
In short
The ribbon costs 70 ct/(3 1/2 yards). So
2 1/2 yards of ribbon costs 2 1/2 x 70 ct/(3 1/2) = 50 ct.

First find out the cost for 1 yd of ribbon, thus
cost / yards bought = $0.70 / 3.5 = $0.20 cents per yard
Then assuming the cost per yard is the same regardless of the amount of yards bought, then
0.20 x 2.5 = 0.50 or 50 cents
PS: The store could go broke...

the price of one million flag is: a million.2 × 0.5 = 0.6 sq. yards (you would possibly want to understand without calculator) 0.6 × $a million.75 = $a million.05 in accordance to flag. so if C is the price and F is the quantity of flags, the function is: C=a million.05×F executed in case you're making 20 flags meaning F = 20 So if we fill that for the time of we get: C=a million.05×20 C=21 executed
